Just wanted to share a little project I've been messing with on and off. Use it to pick up parts or run around town right now. Traded an old 4 door wagon for it about a year ago and have been changing things up here or there. Plans are to enjoy having a running hot rod for a bit longer and pull it apart and do everything right. Including a pic of how I got it. Early twenties willys body title says 26 but im not sure. Model a chassis. 8ba flathead. I've changed quite a bit up. Moved the body forward as far as I could without doing major work. New radiator and grille shell. New headlights relocated further forward. Seat redone. Still have a ways to go but such a fun car to drive.
That thing is sweet... still looking for ideas for my '21 tub. Probably go with something like my profile pic- cant bring myself to cut it in half.
Cool ride. I prefer the original headlite buckets better though. Less mainstream/traditional - more unique.
I like your car a lot!...I have a 1914 Oldsmobile roadster body on a T-bucket frame as my daily driver....your tub looks similar to mine, but I think my cowl area is rounded a little more, and firewall a bit lower...but, all in all, it looks very similar otherwise....however, I had channeled my body over the frame to give it a lower stance...and had to 'narrow' the body 6'' inches to fit everything...I love the 2 doors, since my wife is short and can't 'jump' over the body without giving me the ''dreadful glare''....I really like your car, and it's always nice to see I'm not the only one who has gone a little different route with a T-bucket....Cool car man!!!
